What are some controversial opinions/takes you have?
Here are mine: Take 1: People who respond to criticism of taboo themes with “just don’t read it” or call you “woke” are being just as entitled as they accuse critics of being. Comments are open so people can discuss and critique, by that logic, if you don’t like the criticism, just don’t read the comments. It’s also weird how personally some of these people take it, getting angrier than the actual criticism, almost like they feel called out (and given their profile/reading history, they probably are). Another dodge is “you’re not criticizing the story, you’re criticizing the readers”, but if the story is something like shotacon, yeah, criticizing readers who defend it is fair. Continuing to read something doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to feel uncomfortable with it.
Take 2: That said, not everyone who reads dark/taboo media is bad or endorses it. “Well you read dark stuff too” isn’t the gotcha people think it is, some people seek out dark themes for representation (as an SA survivor, that matters to me), others just like the psychological genre and are still allowed to critique what it gets wrong.
Bring back media literacy. Stop harassing people for having opinions.
1. This site is overrun with lesbophobes, and 90% of them are fujoshis. Also, I can't be misogynistic for criticising rapeslop BLs or the male characters featured in them but you are misogynistic for always shitting on female or WLW characters. ️
2. Apparently a hot take on this site, but just because a story is popular or has a high rating DOE...... 4 reply
My controversial opinion is everyone is trying too hard to be controversial but also trying too hard to not be. It's like people don't give themselves grace or give themselves too much grace and not even out of genuine emphaty for themselves but because of how they want to be perceived by others. You are allowed to be a flawed human being BUT you a...... 2 reply
1. The dark romance genre is the shittiest genre of all time, just because the love isn't supposed to be healthy or logical, doesn't validate the horrible representation of rape, abuse, grooming, etc. and I find it very telling when somebody goes up and down to defend it like their mama made it, I won't tolerate the illiteracy and desensitization t...... 4 reply
more stories need to explicitly include the use of lube.
provoking an emotional response or making the reader curious about the conclusion does not actually make a story well-written.
it's okay and not unreasonable or even entitled to challenge and question the premises and assumptions of a story. the reader does not have to just passively accept...... 2 reply
My controversial opinion is that many opinions under similar threads like these aren't controversial, honestly your opinion isn't even controversial and it's valid imo 4 reply
Im sorry if im being mean but a lot of characters in manhwa have eyebrows that are too thick or too thin. They need to find the balance. Like some of them r so ugly. They r from the same manhwa. Tigers den 4 reply
1. People don’t take the movie jennifer’s body as serious as they should. Calling it toxic yuri seems to downplay jennifer’s horrible situation. She’s a struggling teen that couldn’t express her love and coped by being hypersexual which was used to take advantage of her and she ended up being raped and killed

Ok probably a truly controversial take here. I am new to the questions here so please go easy on me:
People hating on incest while defending for example gay people are hypocrates. U are just following the public opinion without thinking for urself.
The only argument i heard against incest is that it is icky and wrong. Said argument is subjective...... reply
